The Quays

Reviewed By Steve Y

The Quays pub or restaurant is spacious and beautiful, however I just feel that the food, particularly at lunch time is limited and rudimentary - there isn't anything spectacular about it e.g. one can get regular sandwiches and wraps with fries - like most other pubs. I do believe the Quays needs to add more items and improve their variety, perhaps adding some exclusive specialties. But nevertheless, the stop-in was enjoyable!

Maritime Bar

Reviewed By QuinEm

Lovely bar and a good bar menu with loads to choose from. We had lunch here one day while staying at the hotel and it was delicious. Huge portions and tasty toasted sandwiches. Looking at other food being served it all looked good. I also enjoyed a Cosmopolitan on one of the nights and it was excellent, really well made.They have an extensive wine and cocktail list as well as a good range of gins and whiskeys.Lovely to relax here over a drink at any time of the day or night and there was live music while we were staying at the hotel. Great staff too, welcoming and provide great service..Dear QuinEm,Many thanks for your review. We are delighted to read your fantastic comments Our team are delighted with your feedback and are pleased you were able to relax in The Maritime Bar while sampling the menu! We look forward to your return trip in the future. Kind Regards,Maritime Management

Very friendly. Small and local. Prices a bit startling for somewhere like this and the food wasn't really of a quality to justify it

Manning's Emporium

We specialise in the best local food that west Cork has to offer. Our menu includes tasting plates of local cheese and cured meats as well as a great wood fired pizza. We also stock an extensive range of fine wines and local produce, cheese a speciality.

Reviewed By EagleEyeBoston

Friendly hosts, fabulous cheese selection (see them inside where they sell them "to go"), selection of cured meats, beer -- what a great way to have an afternoon lunch while traveling through the area. Finish it off with a cup of poitin (traditional distilled spirit -- strong!). It's good to have a driver!Eat outside on the "porch". Relax!

A rainy night in bantry and we checked out the brick oven.Food was typical pizzeria fare I had calamari to start and a huge plate of linguini with prawns. Nice but sometimes less is more.My wife had mussels which she loved and the Sicilian pizza which she demolished. Service was so , so but the food was really nice if not presented with finesse

Box of Frogs was recommended by a shop owner in Bantry. I ordered decaf coffee, scone, cappuccino & doughnut. My mum found the coffee “strange” no real,taste & a slightly strange colour. Cappuccino was nice doughnut was ok, scone wasn’t great. The place was very busy, staff were nice. Don’t think I would go back
